Recent Guatemala reviews

All the comforts and more!!!

"This is our second stay in this apartment. We returned because it has all we wanted, The unit is completely furnished right down to a blender ( which we used for mamey/zapote milkshakes!), garlic press ( for our guacamole!), comfortable sofas , and a great king size bed. New windows keep out noise ( we slept well...unusual for us). There is a balcony to enjoy the goings on below, always enjoyable. Also, a rooftop terrace has splendid views of the volcanoes and is a peaceful oasis. Patti takes great pride in her place and is available for any help required and is always willing to answer questions."

So good I had to extend my stay

"While I strive to be altruistic, there is still a selfish part of me. I almost am wary of writing a review because I hope to return back to Casa Paloma many many times and fear that everyone will realize what a magic place this is and there won't be any openings. Alas, we can not live our lives ruled by fear or scarcity, so i sit here to tell you the good word. This house is magic. Guatemala is magic. The town of San Marcos is magic. By magic, I mean that things that don't seem possible, become possible in a delightful and enchanting way. For example, I enjoyed staying in the house so much, walking in to town, chatting with the angelic gardeners Miguel and Mateo and the charming boat rides to explore other parts of the lake so much that when I called to change my flight to stay longer, the airline agent said, "You know what? I like you, I'm not going to charge you a change fee!" See....MAGIC! You can easily see from the pictures that it is a beautiful home, but you cannot see the lightning bugs that buzz around after sunset, the way the sky is pink some mornings just before dawn or feel the powerful healing energy of the sacred land around this home, town and country. Joyce's house and visiting Antigua is one of my most favorite trips I have been on and I look forward to going back again and again and trust that there will be enough time at the house for all of us. Blessings on your adventures and know that if you go to this house, you will receive extra blessings!"

Antigua casita

"This home was the perfect base for our family to base our reunion and travels out of. It is the perfect size for 5-6 people - especially if some of those people are children, centrally located with some really friendly 24-hour guards, BEAUTIFUL on both the inside and outside with two awesome pools, and filled with amenities that I didn't expect, like a washer and dryer!
Julie, the owner, is both friendly and quick to respond to emails, which was really important when we were having travel difficulties. I felt like she opened her home to us and welcomed us with open arms, even though she was all the way in D.C.
The location of the house is ideal -- close to downtown and to the market. We walked everywhere and when we got tired, called a taxi for 25Q. The value that we paid for the house was wonderful and it is tastefully decorated with Guatemalan antiques and artisan pieces. I would DEFINITELY stay here again without a moment's hesitation."
